"We're going to put together our own guide, our own authoritative set of guidance for how to conceptualize and treat gender dysphoria, because someone has to step up and challenge these people."

Joseph Burgo should speak with Josh Slocum, who is working a similar angle: commenting on culture and politics from a psychological perspective, specifically the rising influence of cluster B personality disorders
Speaking of autogynephilia in liberal enclaves, y’all will get a kick out of the Harvard and Princeton commencement ceremonies this year, which were basically celebrations of transgenderism. At Princeton, only old white man to receive an honorary degree was the acceptable kind, one that dresses like a woman. At Harvard, well, they did it even better:
Mr Burgo, I commend your bravery. You are such a credible and competent voice. Thanks for your fearlessness despite being in the minority. Please keep going!
Benjamin Boyce just did an great interview with Leon Safir of the Manhattan Institute that is the best breakdown of how we got where we are today through judicial and administrative insanity. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNQ4SlxR618&t=736s
I'm new to year zero. Is there a podcast or article he's written that sketches out this idea that there's "no such thing" as being born in the wrong body?
It seems like a dogmatic position to me. Clearly people experience these dysphoric feelings. Some percentage of them it's probably transient or a symptom of something else, but I don't think its hard to believe that some portion of people have those feelings ingrained on a really innate almost biological level. Wouldn't that count as "being born in the wrong body?"
This was one of my faves. I gotta say, I love Wes' sense of humor about some of this stuff. It really is ridiculous and hilarious (and ridiculously hilarious) but of course also scary. It reminds me of 10 or 15 years ago when people like Sam Harris would ridicule religion in a similar way, in a way that sometimes made me keel over with laughter.
It's so difficult to navigate the "yes, social justice activists really have taken over some trusted medical organizations" to my friends on the left. As Joseph and Wesley point out, when you say this YOU are the one (falsely) who gets accused of being duped by misinformation.
The grooming part for boys. Like how nobody seems to believe it’s happening. Just ask them if they believe sex trafficking happens. And then explain how girls end up being prostitutes. I don’t understand why they can’t also see that this does happen.
Just as they won’t believe the schools are indoctrinating children, yet most of them will believe that southern states “white washed” history and indoctrinated children to believe the confederates were something else.
And they’ll say that victims of TRA violence are actors, yet they rain hell fire on right wingers for saying school shooting victims are actors.
Of course, ROGD has not been shown to be just girls (boys/men even traditionally have copycat behavior), limiting discussion of boys presenting today, with comorbidities and/or adolescent onset to agp and gay does not seem backed by studies. Yes they weren't around in these earlier classifications, but neither were the ROGD girls, right?
I dated this girl whose mom was a real piece of work, we’re talking abuse, divorce, and addiction, and my therapist said she probably has borderline. Extremely difficult to treat without seeking treatment, and because of the condition they almost never do. I see the point, but at the same time “it’s borderline” is something shrinks say without ever meeting the person. It’s too easy to make a diagnosis that conveniently will never get treated. Yeah canceling him was wrong, canceling is almost always wrong. Just because Epstein and Weinstein are real doesn’t justify cancel culture. Just because canceling him was wrong, doesn’t justify a dismissal of nation wide borderline personality disorder. Liberal diagnoses to ordinary feelings from over zealous therapists are also part of this problem.
I don’t hear anything about how the whole LGBTTXEXESESGFGD mess is SINFUL and that is why the TRANNY crap was so easily able to be embraced. Marriage is a SACRAMENT and to make churches allow same sex marriage is SIN. REPENTANCE is the only way out. SIN IS SIN SO GET REAL AND REPENT.
Great episode!
BPD society is exactly what you get with lack of relational care of babies.
Great podcast. Thank you.
His name is Leor Sapir not Leon Safir. I know him and BB well.

They’re such hypocrites

The data are lacking.
